About this product
Product Information
This is the first book which deals with the economics of diamonds, specifically with the determinants of diamond prices. The period of analysis, 1978-1983, was chosen in order to shed light on the dramatic drop in diamond prices. The dominant variables causing this drop were the varying price of gold and fluctuating interest rates. Khoury helps the investor in making long-range decisions about investing in diamonds and deciding on the form the investment should take. He warns of the importance to understand the sensitivities of the market and the factors which must be taken into consideration before commitments to an investment in diamonds are made. The book includes: a quick review of the characteristics of diamonds, the financial performance of DeBeers in a declining market, the economic structure of the diamond industry, the method for exercising economic control over the diamond market, the economic variables influencing diamond prices, and the modeling of diamond prices and the testing of the model using advanced statistical methods.

Reviews
"Earlier this year Quorum Books published a most thorough and extremely important book entitles The Valuation and Investment Merits of Diamonds written by Professor Sarkis J. Khoury Ph.D., Professor of Fianance at the Graduate School of Management at the University of California at Riverside.... Professor Khoury's book fills a void in the literature on diamond investments. In fact the author recently states to Diamond Insight that".....every diamond publication does not carry discussions, deep and serious, about investing in diamonds.....My book is an attempt to redress this." And redress this he does.... In conclusion, Khoury (writing in 1989) expresses concerns over the political unrest in South Africa and the possibility of the Soviets dumping gem-quality diamonds on the world market. Fortunately these concerns have been preempted by the creation of DeBeers Centenary and the Soviet accord of July 25." Diamond Insight

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
